AC adapter/charger for new iPod touch.

Assuming it uses the same docking connector you should be able to use any iPod charger as well as a USB charging cable.

Similar question of the same flavor.

I have a wall charger with a USB plug that I use for charging an older version iPod. It says 5V, 1A. If I'm understanding what you just said, the dock connector with USB cable that comes with the 4th gen. iPod Touch should work just fine with that charger to charge the iPod. Right?

Yes.

You can use the iPad wall block... The iPod touch (like the iPhone) will only draw the power it needs...

Not necessarily. I have a third-party AC charger that works with my 5th gen iPod. The AC charger connector part looks identical to the connector that came with my iPod Touch. However, when I plug it into the Touch, it does fit, and the Touch does turn on, but then a message comes up saying this device is not compatible with this accessory. It also shows a yellow warning triangle, but since it doesn't even attempt to charge, I don't think it does any damage.

Yes necessarily... We're not talking third party here, we're talking apple products, and I personally do this regularly. I have an iPad and iPhone and iPod touch.

I have my new ipodtouch 4 g and i also own ipod touch 1st gen you cannot charge the 4g with the same charger. i do have an apple usb adapter plug in to the wall type so i just switched the usb cords.

I think we are talking about Apple wall chargers here.

I have 2 Apple chargers and they both work on all my iPods...

1. I purchased the *Apple iPad 10W USB Power Adapter* charger kit (Mine also came with the 30 pin USB cable at the time which was a great deal. Now I see they have removed that cable from the kit as I thought it was a mistake when I bought it)

*10W USB Power Adapter*
Model Number A1357
Input 100-240V
Output 5.1V

2. This wall charger came in the *Apple Composite AV Cable* video kit

*iPod USB Power Adapter*
Model Number A1205
Input 100-240V
Output 5V

What Apple Wall Charger model numbers do the rest of you have?

Assuming it uses the same docking connector you should be able to use any iPod charger as well as a USB charging cable.

Maybe.... as long as it's not an older charger that supplies the higher Firewire voltage. The Docking connector had provisions for BOTH USB and Firewire charging (using different pins).

A lot of third-party chargers sold until last year supplied only the Firewire voltages (something like 8 to 30 volts) and not the well regulated USB 5.0 volts.

Apple had warned of the dropping of iPod Firewire charging for a couple of years, but when they actually dropped it last year, a lot of third-party manufacturers were STILL unprepared.

Yes, the iPad charger block will work with all iPods and iPhones. Just in case you need some confirmation:http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC359LL/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjA&mco=MTcyMTgxNzE

N Pokorny,

That is the same link I gave above.

The iPad charger doesn't say it is for the 2nd generation iPod Touch with all the little images of the different iPods, but it does work on both of my iPod Touch 2nd generation.

sorry i only responded to the question because it was still unsolved and open. I didnt realize they were the same links until i already posted it. Again im sorry if i upset anyone

No problem at all.

I'm surprised no one else is giving us their part number for the Apple AC adapters that don't work, or supposedly aren't working.

As I mentioned above, I have 2 different models with different part numbers and both of them work.

My original reply and question was motivated by the fact that I have two third-party USB chargers that plug into an AC outlet and has a USB plug-in. The output stated on the back of one is 5V,1A and the other is 5V,500mA. I was wondering if either one could be safely used to charge the 4th gen. iPod Touch that I'm expecting to arrive soon. It appears from the experience of others in this thread that the charger with the 1 amp current would probably work better than the 500mA current. I was more concerned about overpowering the battery and burning it up, but it doesn't seem like that is likely.

seeing as both have 5V, I think they will do just fine because both the Apple adapters mentioned above also put out 5V
